adj. Indubitably true—in somebody's opinion.
He ne'er discredited authentic news,
That tended to substantiate his views,
And never controverted an assertion
When true, if it was easy of perversion.
So frank was he that where he was unjust
He always would confess it when he must.
—"The Lawyer," 1750
